I was only 7 in 1975 but i still remember them,you’d have to have a quick look around these days before admitting youve just watched them🤦♂️,still they can’t take away what we’ve already had👍
Wish life didn't have to change from the 70s I say when something good don't touch it . Now life all about watching who slept in this bed . Reality boring shows. Only thing I like about theses days no smoking other then that nothing no good tv shows have watch old ones for a laugh like this , bless this house, I love lucky .
Better times, neighbours used to just walk in your home, because nobody had nothing to steal yet you could trust your neighbours back then. I remember our massive Tv it was BW and it would take ten people to carry it that’s all we had, Tv would go off at 12:am and back on at 12:pm the next day incredible to life nowadays, it was a good laugh and great fun, monopoly was the main game back then . There were no drugs, only rock bands or big stars had access to them back in the day , life had a better meaning, go out on a Friday after work and Saturday then church Sunday morning, then back to the club to get drunk lol.
Comedy was far funnier then as it was 'Pc' free - not like today's unfunny tripe. The silly pc brigade get offended by the slightest of things - we all have a duty to ignore what they think and carry on.
Sadly the world couldnt laugh at themselves anymore and the pc brigade got programmes like this banned and thanks to people taking the time to upload genuis comedy...ps dont give a toss if your black,white or green with pink spots
This is great. I never could see what all the fuss was about. Presumably it's the USE of certain words rather than their context which upsets a few humourless individuals who would have us all believe the word 'context' doesn't exist.
The pc brigade have ruined good comedy like this, i had a black friend and he used to laugh at this just as much as me, what we used to say in them days was you have a choice, you can turn your tv off or just change channel if you don't like something, but no they couldn't just do that they had to try to get it banned, low life boring farts the lot of em.
We've All done it at school having a laugh calling each other honky n nig nog! Not proud of it nowadays but we all had a laugh n got on with each other! Now there's offence taken n there needs to be some respect!
Aye that's what's wrong with today's so called civilisation ... ha ha we ain't so civilised ,animals ,have always done it better ... Always know what to expect from animals .... Ppl worrying about saying the right/ wrong thing , causes more harm than good ...having a thick skin and been true was always best course ...lot better to be thick skinned and stress free .... that don't cause wars...been uptight and minding what ya say does ... Comedy at its best !!
Mrs Richards: "I paid for a room with a view!" Basil: (pointing to the lovely view) "That is Torquay, Madam." Mrs Richards: "It's not good enough!" Basil: "May I ask what you were expecting to see out of a Torquay hotel bedroom window? Sydney Opera House, perhaps? the Hanging Gardens of Babylon? Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically past?..." Mrs Richards: "Don't be silly! I expect to be able to see the sea!" Basil: "You can see the sea, it's over there between the land and the sky." Mrs Richards: "I'm not satisfied. But I shall stay. But I expect a reduction." Basil: "Why?! Because Krakatoa's not erupting at the moment?
Back before the wimpy self righteous entitled brats took everything personal and complained about everything, let’s just sit back and have a laugh at each other, much happier when we do
Nicknamed the Red Devils, it was founded as Newton Heath LYR Football Club in 1878, but changed its name to Manchester United in 1902. So you're wrong and the mirror is right.
I liked this show as a kid ,but from a kid to adult i do wish the writer hadn't made Eddie such a idiot ,and a Man United mirror in a London bar ,i don't think so,and there was only one team in the 70s,and to me will always be the greatest footballing team the mighty Liverpool
As racist as it seems,it points total fun back at the white man.If it was racism from the other charcters aswell it wouldnt be as good.Its still racist though but i find myself still watching it with guilt.
And please tell us all mr academy award winner that you are, how do you expect her to have honed her acting skills as a 30 something year old, black woman in the early to late 70s? Acting rolls for blacks certainly wasn't a common thing.. Try educating yourself before commenting such rubbish.
4:00, Well 45 years later & that Manchester United picture sized list of achievements have doubled, even tripled in size!. So Eddie Booth was completely right in saying that the Manchester United achievements had more to come from 1975 onwards, doubling or tripling the picture size that Eddie lovingly polished/cleaned!!.
Only thing now is Manchester city have taken over and it's been 8 glorious years since you lot last won the premier League and 4 years not winning anything......🤣🤣😂

Go on. Re-run the series now and make the PC brigade choke on their chip butties.
One of the best comedy's of the 1970s
The best years gone by
When people could actually have a laugh without meaning anything sinister
True
as funny now as it was in 1975.timeless.
Eric Sykes and Hattie Jacques had a similar plot in an episode of Sykes
yes the haunting i do think people re-use ideas.

1970s...the best era for t.v..shows and comedy...and my humble opinion living life the 70s way...👍

Looked up my diary for 1975 - I watched this episode on April 17th!
One of the best ones! 😂
Cracked me up. Thanks for the upload.
Loved this humour not an bit of racism society went down hill from here
Not a bit of racism 🤔 that's what the whole show was about..
If your going to say summat try telling the truth.
You must have that racism built into you if you couldn’t notice it. Wtf 🙄 “not a bit” 🤔

Too right
That's a mouthful 🤔, I just miss smoking in the pub from the good ol'days.
So true
Eddie Booth was one of those quintessentially English characters we all love and miss. 🏴
Sadly the world couldnt laugh at themselves anymore and the pc brigade got programmes like this banned and thanks to people taking the time to upload genuis comedy...ps dont give a toss if your black,white or green with pink spots

This is great. I never could see what all the fuss was about. Presumably it's the USE of certain words rather than their context which upsets a few humourless individuals who would have us all believe the word 'context' doesn't exist.
Yes, you are absolutely right, I don't mind if anybody called me by my color. "Whitey"

The theme tune should have been Bill and Eddie singing ebony and ivory.
How does Arthur have a lawn? Thought he lived in a tower block?!
He grew it on his window sill!
Cheers 4 the upload😍Merry XMAS to everyone 🤶🎅

No we haven't all done that at all.. speak for ya self
11:40 It's 'Sidney Potter'
Eddie, man United fan, what were they winning in the 70's, Liverpool won the lot in the 70's
Best friends are able to take the piss out of eachother while having eachothers back! Far left changed the definition!
I noticed that the level crossing from earlier shows, at the end of Maple Terrace had been replaced with the footbridge.
An extra house on the end too.
I wonder what they do with the kids. Joan mentioned feeding hers fish fingers. Then what, back to bed or take themselves off down the park.
Eddie ia such a villain
Bill looks like hes missing from a jam jar😁😁😁

THE BEATLES DIDNT START ROCK N ROLL BILL HARLEY ,ELVIS PRESLEY , LITTLE RICHARD DID I WISH THEY GET IT RIGHT

It was actually Blues and Country and Western which started rock n roll
It was Marty McFly.....

Always know what to expect from animals ....

Arthur Promised the wife he'd do the gardening and he lives in flat!
Mrs Richards: "I paid for a room with a view!"

Lol .wrong program
What’s Fawlty Towers got to do with this program? Trying to take Jacko’s place 😂

Back before the wimpy self righteous entitled brats took everything personal and complained about everything, let’s just sit back and have a laugh at each other, much happier when we do
man utd was not founded when its says on the mirror
Nicknamed the Red Devils, it was founded as Newton Heath LYR Football Club in 1878, but changed its name to Manchester United in 1902. So you're wrong and the mirror is right.
It wouldnt be shown today this programme to much wokeness and political correctness these days
Nothing wrong with Man City
I liked this show as a kid ,but from a kid to adult i do wish the writer hadn't made Eddie such a idiot ,and a Man United mirror in a London bar ,i don't think so,and there was only one team in the 70s,and to me will always be the greatest footballing team the mighty Liverpool
I will gladly accept anyone of any race, creed or colour. But I draw the line at Liverpool supporters!
If the writer's hadn't made Eddie a bigot.... what kind of show do you think we would of had.. ?
Actually a man utd mirror in a London bar is about right..most of their fans are cockney reds..the script writers got it spot on.....
up the hammers
As racist as it seems,it points total fun back at the white man.If it was racism from the other charcters aswell it wouldnt be as good.Its still racist though but i find myself still watching it with guilt.
So you've never heard Bill be racist?
Nina baden Powell was wooden as the wife the rest of the cast are amazing 👌
@Michael Walton your the TOOL

Thats the other reason i watch it M UFC fanEddie.Jack Smethurst was from Collyhurst,very much manunited not far from Newton Heath
This show was so bad it's frightening.
One of the best comedies of that era. Why do you say it was bad? In what way?
This show was and is one of the best , i loved it back then and I love it even more now , have bought the box set
This was the best comedy ever
Keith your so wooden dude get a life
Ineffably dreadful: thick stuff for thick people unable to see that the writer is laughing at them.
